This beautiful book gives new life to the values and thinking of the Che Guevara behind the legend, a man who was at once sensitive, passionate and determined to pursue his socialist dreams to their conclusion. Che is viewed through the camera lens of his photographer Perfecto Romero, through posters and other images, and through the iconography that grew up around him after his death in 1967 while trying to start a revolution in Bolivia. The images are accompanied by quotations from writings by Che and others, which show his commitment to timeless human values such as honour, truth, loyalty and honesty, and highlight his transition from a guerilla fighter to a leader of the Cuban Revolution and his later return to guerilla warfare.
